I think I like these, better than regular halo's, thanks for the info. I've asked around about having someone install halo's but no one wants to do it.

Found a place called THE RETROFIT SOURCE that has recommended installers in Jersey, NY and VA.

Thanks.

If you have any questions let me know. I dont cover the headlight reinstall back into the car, but can answer any questions you guys might have.

Outstanding! Thanks man for posting these!

I'm hoping more and more people will realize how much better a retrofit is than the other options out there. Beyond being a much better price the quality of the projector is outstanding.

Thanks for making these videos so others can get an idea on what it takes to do them.

Thought I would post a couple pics on this tread of the cut-off line on the Morimoto projector. In the last pic I went up against some RS Camaros. You can see how much more sharp the line is on the Morimoto.

what are the Angel Eyes? I'm looking to buy these and do the retrofit but I dont know if I should do Angel Eyes or not. And the shrouds theres so many but I don't see any pics of the different options. I may just go with the ones you got since they are pretty nice.

drobbins2 · 05-09-2012, 11:24 AM

these look really good.... and i guess depending on preference could be considered better looking than the eom rs headlight. nice work

Angel Eyes are basically Halo rings. Similar to what comes on the RS.

I have most of the shrouds pictured in my thread. They won't matter as much if you're going to paint them black.

Hi there I'm really wanting to retrofit my headlights but all my car guy friends are telling me no, that's it's too difficult to do and I can easily ruin my headlights. What do you guys think? What is the level of difficulty? And maybe some pros and cons?

ddavis · 05-24-2012, 12:15 PM

Buy some stock housings to try it on as extras. I didnt think it was hard, but then again I do engine swaps and have worked on cars for a long time. I might be up for selling my morimoto setup since im selling my car. I have thought about pulling some parts off to sell.

Just make sure u don't rush and it's not a hard project. Total time it too me was a day and half. Work here and there and once in a while take a breather. No problems yet. And thanks ddavis without ur videos I would of beer attempted the install. You pretty much explain everything that must be done

butters · 05-24-2012, 11:20 PM

Do you know what the outter diameter of your halos are?
